Economic Impact of Derated Climb on Large Commercial Engines

Aircraft engines are sized and power managed to meet takeoff field length and climb rate requirements at the maximum takeoff gross weight (TOGW). When operating at reduced TOGW, reduced thrust (derate) may be used in both takeoff and climb to extend engine life and reduce maintenance cost.
